Bug 226341

- What is the stuff at the beginning needed for?

- You can use 
%{!?pyver: %global pyver %(%{__python} -c "import sys ; print sys.version[:3]")}
to get the Python base version.

- Patches are not documented.
- Commented patches should be removed.

- BuildRoot should be
%(mktemp -ud %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-XXXXXX)

- Remove topdir, pushd and popd and use
make -C Doc
instead. 

- Remove buildroot check from install.

Should be %defattr(-,root,root,-)

This isn't a problem.

I don't know. The same is in python spec file

I don't change it. I think the better is to set version by hand.


>- Patches are not documented.
Patches are from previous package - python. I don't know what they were solving...

>- Commented patches should be removed.
Commented lines removed. Patches aren't in cvs.

All else should be fixed.

OK, please commit the new spec to CVS so I can approve.

done

- You might want to add "-p" to "mkdir $RPM_BUILD_ROOT" in install phase.

- Also, you can remove the unnecessary
 topdir=`pwd`
from the build phase.
